We always had a rule when camping, which was "Leave it better then it was when you came." The only time we ever ran into a place that was so pristine we could not do that was in northern Canada, on a one week long canoe portage trip. It was so lovely and remote...I'll never forget it. <br />Your walk and photography makes me feel like we're right there with you. I especially love the before and after shots you took of that majestic oak tree.

I hate that people throw out their trash too, especially when there is a trash can nearby. To be fair though, I do think the park could do its part by having another trash can further down the area where most of the trash is thrown (about the time the cup of coffee is done). I know I pick up my dog's presents, and I have to carry it for a long time before I can get back around to the trash can unless I backtrack.Shelina (formerly known as Shasta)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03290945204269323129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4062746784364845999.post-17742994618882887412015-11-06T13:13:05.209-05:002015-11-06T13:13:05.209-05:00Beautiful Fall color.
